It is squashed into the centre of the screen and bouncing up and down!

Either that's how CloudFlare have changed it or there is a problem which am sure they will resolve soon. Thought it was quite odd too.

I think it may be a browser issue, I think I did see a message at some point stating that browser needed updating.

Maybe not, just tried on Chrome and Firefox and both have same issue.

Well, as no one has explained, I thought that I'd try Wikipedia.

I found this: -

"CloudFlare is a US-based company that provides a content delivery network and distributed domain name server system, sitting between the visitor and the CloudFlare user's hosting provider, acting as a reverse proxy for websites. Its network protects, speeds up, and improves availability for a website or mobile application with a change in DNS."

...and this: -

"CloudFlare uses a modified version of Nginx as a key technology.[20] As of December 2014, it reportedly operated from within 30 partner data centers."

CloudFlare claims to protect, speed up, and improve availability for a website or mobile application by using a DNS change. The network optimizes web and mobile pages to improve page load times and performance. CloudFlare also attempts to block threats and limit abusive bots and crawlers. CloudFlare currently runs on an anycast network.[22] CloudFlare aims to protect customers from DDoS attacks, they also provide other services like a web application firewall (WAF).

CloudFlare releases "Keyless SSL" technology that lets sites use CloudFlare’s SSL service while retaining on-premises custody of their private keys.[23]

CloudFlare launched a free service for both its paying and free customers: automatic Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption for any site, without the need to pay for or configure an encryption certificate."

...and I'm still none the wiser!

Ah....

Probably the reason that I've never seen that, is because I never log off, except by mistake, or if one of my devices takes it into its head to do a re-boot

Nor do I Keith, but I get CloudFlare every time I access Kibcom.

Sorry Karmels, need cloudflare to protect forum from hackers. When post disappears try clicking back once or twice quickly, this usually works for me - post re-appears for submission.
Anyway, send me your IP - it may help.

Soner.
After typing a fairly long post ref the water pipeline when I tried to post it cloud flare came on bounced up and down then cleared what I had written.
I tried clicking back but cloud flare came on again and all was gone, I was unable to retrieve it. This has never happened before cloudflare started to bounce up and down.
